An approach for securely transmitting and storing data is described. A sending host generates a random sequence of characters as a keystream as a one-time pad. The keystream is bitwise combined with plaintext using an exclusive-OR operation to create ciphertext. The keystream and ciphertext are routed over physically separate communication paths to a receiving host, which decrypts by applying the keystream to the ciphertext using exclusive-OR, The separately routed paths may be established using MPLS labeling or strict route options. |
